Buriram United have one foot in the final of the Thai League Cup after claiming a 1-0 win over Ratchaburi in the first leg of their semi-final tie.

The only goal of the game at the New I-Mobile Stadium came in the 19th minute, when Venezuela centre-back Andres Tunez popped up at the other end to net with a header.

Any hopes Ratchaburi had of a late comeback were effectively ended when they were reduced to ten men seven minutes from time, although they remain very much in the contest with the second leg to be played in a fortnight.
